The main house of an old farm on the outskirts of Salisbury in Wiltshire has been restored and renovated to provide a family home, but the farm cottages are now rented out for holidays and the barn is for hire for weddings, parties and christenings. The house has a number of guest bedrooms dressed with vintage linens and ‘cornices’ of dried ivy. During the restoration of the house ornate painted walls were discovered under the hall and landing wallpapers. Writer vinnylee@btinternet.com
